New guide helps consumers and employers understand health insurance

Newswise — The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality and America's Health Insurance Plans today released Questions and Answers about Health Insurance, a new guide designed to help consumers make important health insurance decisions.

The guide explains how different types of health insurance work, including network-based plans, non-network based coverage, and consumer-directed health plans. It also provides a glossary of health insurance terms as well as additional resources to obtain more information.

 

This guide is a critically important resource because today's more complex health care system requires consumers and employers to be more informed about their choices. Choosing and understanding how to use a health plan may be the key to helping consumers get the care they need when they need it.

To learn more about how "Questions and Answers about Health Insurance" can help consumers and employers understand more about health insurance, please call Joyce Middleton at 301-427-1862. To see or order a free copy of the brochure, visit http://www.ahrq.gov/consumer/insuranceqa/.

 
As part of AHRQ's Healthcare 411 series, AHRQ also has produced a :90 radiocast about the new health insurance booklet that includes soundbites from AHRQ Director Dr. Carolyn Clancy. Please visit http://healthcare411.ahrq.gov/radiocastseg.aspx?id=674&type=seg
